I live in zone 8 and my tomatoe plants are in 5 gallon pails, sitting on the patio. Can it be too much sun, for these guys ? they get like 7 or 8 hours of direct sun light and they alwayS look thirsty. Should I move them, so they get more of the morning sun and less of the afternoon sun ? Any opinions out there. thanks in advance.

I want to plant some flowers around a big maple tree I have which has a lot of shade. I live in the northeast so I would need something that could survive the cold and come back every year. Any suggestions?

A couple of years ago a wild grape showed up in my yard. The vine was pretty big last season and is huge this season, but It hasn't set fruit yet. This year there are tiny chartreuse clusters and I'm wondering if this is the start of grapes.

My toliet overflowed and the water was leaking for about an hour before i realized it. It is taking the carpet a long time to dry. I tried using a steam cleaner to suck up the water but it didn't dry it enough. Now my house smells sour. Please help I can't take the smell any longer!

There's an open pipe under the kitchen cabinet in my office, and the maintenance thinks roaches are getting in through here. The maintenance said to put wire mesh in the hole, but I don't know where to look for something like this.

I've tried hot soapy water, scraping it and scouring it and it won't budge. As it was underneath the rug it has gathered dirt etc through the years and I desperately need to get rid of it. Any tips for removing it would be most greatful.

I started off wanting to paint the accent (vaulted) wall in my master bedroom a turquoise color. Then I saw a sage green color that I fell in love with. How would it look if I painted the accent wall turquoise and the other walls sage green? Or should I paint all of the walls sage green and leave the turq. as an accent color? The bedroom furniture, dark brown or light maple?
The bathroom that is connected to the bedroom. What color should I paint it?
I want my room to be peaceful, trendy, and sophisticated. (For a 25 yr old!) Help!!

The run times for each zone do not overlap and other zones are running in sequence. it's only zones 8, 9, and 10 that will all start up (within seconds) when any one of them is activated.

I just added a pull down ladder to my attic. Now I want to add wood surfaces over the joists. Will sandwiching the insulation between the drywall and new surface have an adverse effect on the insulation value?

Exactly what does a professional house cleaner, clean in your house? If you hired a housekeeper and paid them $60 every other week, what would you expect to be included in the cost?

My old one is 5.5 hp. I would like to get something stronger. Would 6.5 — 6.75 torque be stronger? Hp seems to be the old measurement.
Thx
